Lately I have this strong desire that maybe we should add one or two more to our family. The problem is I already had two C-sections and when I went back to my OB yesterday for my Post partrum check up he said that 3 C-section is okay although the doctor wouldn't be too happy but having 4 is pushing it. DH and I talked about this yesterday too he didn't want anymore unless I get a job because there's no way we can support 4 kids in his pay either that or he has to become an officer in the military. He's thinking more of later on in life like when the kids become teenagers and they will want "expensive things" like Nike shoes, Tommy hilfger clothes, etc... I debated this for a while because you can raise kids without having a lot of those stuff. I just have a baby about two months ago but everyt time I look into my daughter peaceful and beautiful face I just have this urge and desire that I want more. I know I shouldn't be selfish and if we can't afford to have one or two more we shouldn't but at the same time I'm thinking by the end of June this year we will be debt free. DH wanted to get fix but I'm not too sure yet. The doctor said that I should think about it for a while but I know everyday my desire to have another one is getting stronger and stronger. I don't know if my feelings are going to change next year or two months from now. If we do decide to have one or two more I'm scared about having another C-section. I thought about adopting two more kids if we will go in that route but I don't know how much its going to cost us. Its better if we save now little by little so that when it comes to that day all the cost are covered. I know there's plenty of kids out there that needs a good home but I'm worried about the cost. DH said its okay to adopt we are lucky even to have two biological kids of our own we just thankful to God that he gave us two. Its nice to have a big family though but I guess I'm wishing too much.

darlin', I am thinking the same thing right now lol

dd who is 12 wks is so cute and so cuddly and precious , then I think she will turn 3 lol ( read post in toddlers about terrific threes! )

Maybe it is hormones, or reminicing about being pregnant, but it's normal. they are so precious, and you are their #1 person ( which is so lovely, to be loved like that )

Enjoy your lil one, hugs more often...

I have also had 2 c sections and we do want another child, but it is a risk. I would hold off on the big V til you know for sure though!

That's funny -- Logan is six months and Liliana is 4 year and I'm DONE! Sure I look at babies and think, "What if?" But I know, in my heart, that I am done with having children. But I guess it is different for everyone!
